The auction fell short of my reserve. My asking price based on various factors including rarity and condition of the car . I took greed out of the equation and placed a reserve that I felt fair to both seller and any potential buyers. This is a rare and well preserved 300d that warrants a little bit more than $11,000. Thanks again everyone.

The car is very presentable, the interior is clean and seats are in immaculate condition, make me to beleive it likely had sheep skin seat cover since new and rear seats looks like never been sat on before. The car does have factory A/C, A/C compressor is present but it is not blowing cold air, probably need a recharge.

The previous owner owned it for over 20 years. Before that , the previous owner lived locally. While in the US , the car has spent its entirety in California. I recently drove it on a 120 mile road trip . It handled great doing 80 miles an hour. All of the lights and panel instruments function properly, with the exception of the clock. One of the very last pictures in the gallery is the front driver's seat with with the seat cover pulled back. The front seats are in immaculate condition , as the rest of the interior. I am working out of town, but when I return home on Friday, I will remove the seat covers and provide pictures of the front seats. I will also remove the spare tire and take some pictures of the trunk area . Before I purchased this MB , I thourally inspected it for any rust issues. The only areas are the one's previously noted . The car does not have any foul odors. The car is really beautiful and in great condition. I would advise any potential buyers to hire a mobile vehicle inspector to inspect the car for you . I am confident that whoever sees the car in person or hires an inspector will be quite impressed with its condition. I would even go as far as to reimburse any cost for hiring an inspector. August 26th, 2024 at 1:46am ESTc0rbin9 (2) 0Any information on how you came to own the car, or the prior history? I don't live locally so just trying to gather as much info as possible before bidding. Any funny smells inside? Is the car watertight? Does it drive straight? Does everything work, including the A/C (it appears to have A/C, see comments below)? Also would like to see photos of the seats without the covers (especially the driver's outer bolsters), and the trunk floor below the spare tire if possible. Thanks! August 25th, 2024 at 6:05pm ESTHank66 (2) Seller 1Thanks cOrbin9 for your input. You appear very knowledgeable and your feedback is appreciated. I'm glad you pointed out the two areas where slight bubbling has begun on the car . It appears that any rust issues are limited to those areas. I have made every attempt to examine the car for any possible over spray , which would indicate a possible respray. The paint on this MB appears to be original. I am open to any suggestions that would clarify if the paint is original to the car . I was thinking of driving it to a local auto body shop , and they could possibly do a paint meter reading on it. There is one dime size spot on the passenger front fender that has had paint applied to it . It's obvious the previous owner didn't find an exact color match. Other than the aforementioned issues, The interior and exterior of this MB are in great original and well preserved condition. As with any car , they're only original once. If this rare beauty doesn't sell , I will look into installing air conditioning , although I have no need for it as it always a pleasant 68 degrees here in Monterey county. Once again
